kashew (asker) Apr 22, 2011:
contact(face) sealing? anyway - it's down the tubes to the client now - thanks to both of you.
AAMOI the %s are alloy element contents.
Bourth (X) Apr 22, 2011:
I think the notion of these components supporting/holding/retaining the "active" sealing part is probably right, but to understand better I'd be curious to know what these percentage figures refer to.

seating

found the term in GDT...I think it fits

Déf: Surface géométriquement parfaite usinée sur le ou les sièges, ou sur l'obturateur d'un appareil de robinetterie, afin d'en assurer l'étanchéité à la fermeture.

Note(s) :
Le portage d'étanchéité est généralement dit portée de siège ou siège, côté corps de l'appareil, et simplement portée, côté obturateur

The sand core (fitted with a metal ring) should then be placed in pouring aperture of the mould to ensure correct seating and then removed.
